I read this for Book Club and ooh, it was DRAMATIC! 😳 The concept of Pip investigating a murder for an EPQ was ridiculous but I still was gripped during every moment, especially the last 40% where things got more mixed up!
Putting down a spoiler below (so do not read if you don’t want to know), so I can take it to Book Club ✨
I am sometimes a little bit skeptical of BookTok’s favourites (because I detested It Ends With Us), but this one is definitely a go ✨ Easy to read and emotional, especially towards the end! 🥲❤️
